Well I wrapped up my season this morning and I couldn't be more pleased. Was lucky enough to harvest an elk in Colorado OTC archery, two does and now my buck. This is a deer I have see for 4 years on camera and he is at least 6 possibly 7 plus. He is the largest most mature buck and largest body I have ever harvested on my small 300 acre place. I am really focusing on trying to let them grow old so I let all my 4 year old bucks walk this year. This deer was smart as can be and def the ruler of the roost. He would not come into feeders. I have 3 1000 pound feeders that go off a total of 90 seconds a day and I don't have a photo 1 of him since the first week of October. I hung a stand on a trail and decided to stick with it and it paid off about 9 am this morning. I saw a big body deer walking and grabbed my bow. I recognized the buck imediatly and decided he would be a great mature animal to take his year after logging 125 plus hours in the stand. The new Halon 32 is a machine that deserves credit. He ran 20 yards and coughed twice and fell over. Its been a great year and am beyond blessed.

Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.
